I've started having a new problem with Amibroker today. When loading the program, Amibroker runs through initialization - loading plugins, loading database, preparing user interface - and then gets stuck at "Opening charts".
I've waited and given it time but 5-10mins and it is still stuck there.
How do I fix this? Do I need to reinstall Amibroker?
If that doesn't solve your problem, you will need to provide more details, like whether you have recently installed new plugins or databases, tried to move AmiBroker, etc.
Problem solved. Thanks again to @mradtke for the quick reply.
Following the troubleshooting steps, I diagnosed it was something to do with my database. I recently began using Norgate Data. Before deleting files and reinstalling everything, I went into the Norgate Updater, clicked on databases and redownloaded all the databases. That seemed to do the trick as things are working again now.
It is Norgate plugin that got stuck while accessing data.
Remember: when you are using 3rd party data source the PLUGIN TAKES TOTAL CONTROL over data access. If it hangs/gets stuck then the entire program will appear "stuck" because AmiBroker is WAITING for plugin to return and it never returns.
